PowerNet SNMP MIB will not compile or load due to error with Integer32 and/or Unsigned32

Issue

Some users have reported an error while trying to load and/or compile the APC PowerNet MIB recently. The error may be similar to: "Problem found when compiling the MIB: ERROR: Cannot find symbol Integer32, Source: Powernet412.mib, Row: 6761, Col: 11 SYNTAX Integer32" and also apply to Unsigned32 values.

Product Line

APC PowerNet SNMP MIB

Cause

It appears certain compilers and SNMP NMS systems are having problems finding the definition for Integer32 and Unsigned32 values which are defined under the IMPORTS section of the MIB. APC's MIB has not changed this recently.

Resolution

This will be addressed in a future MIB release. A workaround today is to manually edit the MIB in a text editor to contain the correct definition and references, as needed.
